    SAFARI STARTING FROM NAIROBI KENYA

     ARRIVAL

    Upon your arrival in Nairobi, your dedicated Travel InternationalSafaris Guide will meet you at the Airport. Your guide will be on hand during your entire stay and will travel with you to help you have the very best experience possible while in Kenya. You and your party will be transferred from the airport to your Hotel in Nairobi. 

     Samburu is the most popular reserve in northern Kenya. Wildlife viewing is good, and most big safari animals are easily spotted. The arid environment is home to a variety of north Kenya specials – both birds and mammals.

    A village visit to a nearby Samburu homestead is a worthwhile activity.

    Samburu offers great wildlife viewing and four of the Big five are present. Rhinos are absent, but big herds of elephant cross the reserve. Of the big cats, leopards are very rewarding with some habituated individuals giving high-quality sightings. Most interesting are the northern Kenya specials including beisa oryx, lesser kudu, reticulated giraffe, Grevy’s zebra.
